A data center cooling solution providing techniques for using baffles, doors and roof sections to prevent warm air from being entrained into a cold aisle in a data center, wherein the data center generally contains an air cooling system and a raised floor structure. The raised floor structure is configured to deliver cool air into the data center through a plurality of grates and perforated tiles in the floor. Electronic equipment racks are disposed around the grates and perforated tiles, such that the front faces of the equipment racks face the grates and perforated tiles. A collection of baffles, doors or roof sections inhibit the mixing of the cool air delivered by the air cooling system and the warm air exhausted by the electronic equipment.

Method and system for classifying system logs. A data processing system reads a message in one line of a system log; prepares a root node of a tree structure in which each node holds a format; calculates a similarity between a log of the root node and the message; generates and stores a first format in the root node if the calculated similarity is equal to or greater than a threshold value; adds the message to a child node of the root node, in accordance with a given condition; searches for, after the first format is created, a second format similar to the first format in a format storage table; combines the first format and the similar format to produce a combined parent format, where the combined parent format holds a plurality of formats; and stores the combined parent format in the format storage table to produce a classified format.

A method of concealing bit errors in a signal is provided. The method comprises encoding a signal parameter according to a set of constraints placed on a signal parameter quantizer. The encoded signal parameter is decoded and compared against the set of constraints. Finally, the method includes declaring the decoded signal parameter invalid when the set of constraints is violated. Training binned ranges of gain values provide a threshold for selecting data segments to examine for violation of constraints on gain differences. Further, an additional method comprises training a threshold function T(qlg(m−1), Δqlg(m−1) used in a codec bit error detecting technique. The threshold function is based upon a first training file having N signal segments. The method includes encoding the first training file and determining gain values qlg(m) of each of the N signal segments within the encoded first training file. The gain values form a range and the range is divided into bins. Next, the gain values are stored in a second training file. The method associates each of particular ones of the gain values and gain differences within the sequence qlg(m−1) and Δqlg(m−1) with a corresponding one of the bins.

A data processing apparatus having processing circuitry, a scalar register bank and a vector register bank, including decoding circuitry arranged to decode a sequence of instructions to generate control signals for the processing circuitry. The decoding circuitry is responsive to a decode modifier instruction within the sequence of instructions to alter decoding of a subsequent scalar instruction in the sequence by mapping at least one scalar operand specified by the subsequent scalar instruction to at least one vector operand in the vector register bank, and, in dependence on the scalar operation specified by the subsequent scalar instruction, determining a vector operation to be performed on at least a subset of the operand elements within the at least the one vector operand. Such an approach enables a wide variety of vector operations to be specified without the need to individually define separate vector instructions for those vector operations.

A data communication system that provides different types of service (e.g., telephone services and high-speed data transmission services) to a remote site even when the remote site lacks a splitter is disclosed. A central site (e.g., central office) is able to communicate with at least two different types of remote sites. One type of remote site includes a full splitter (i.e., both low-pass and high-pass filters), and the other type of remote site has only a partial splitter (i.e., includes high-pass filter but lacks a low-pass filter). Although conventionally the transceivers (e.g., ADSL transceivers) at these remote sites would be of the same design and use the same modulation technique for upstream as for downstream transmissions, here the remote site that lacks a low-pass filter (i.e., partial splitter type remote site) uses a different modulation technique for upstream transmissions. As an example, in a data communication system where a remote site lacks a complete splitter, a high peak-average-ratio (PAR) technique like discrete multi-tone (DMT) can be used with downstream transmissions that do not lead to noise at the telephone service even in the splitterless design, and a lower PAR technique (e.g., CPM, QAM, FSK, etc.) can be used with upstream transmissions so that the noise levels produced at the telephone service are vastly reduced. The central site is able to communicate with both the different types of remote sites. The central site selects from various receiver units depending on the type of modulation (e.g., low PAR technique) used.

A medical system utilizes a guide wire with a fluid filled internal lumen and a pressure measurement system to measure blood pressure in a body vessel. The guide wire includes an internal lumen with a distal opening for admitting fluid flow. The internal lumen is filled with a fluid or other media which can transmit pressure along the guide wire. The pressure measurement system includes a pressure transducer in fluid communication with the internal lumen of the guide wire.
